How supportive will Manchin & Sinema be of a Biden Supreme Court nominee?

Just wondering out loud...

[Budi]

1. How supportive will Any of them be if Biden's choice is not 'their' choice?

Guess we'll find out if that day ever happens in Biden's term

[MoonlitKnight]

2. Their current actions are endangering all nominees after 2022

They will cause us to lose the Senate if they keep this up.

3. +1000

4. They seem to want a permanent Democratic minority.

5. They aren't trustworthy at all.

I'm thinking Manchurian Candidates.

6. We won't know for sure until it happens, but Manchin was supportive...

of Trump's


From: https://www.manchin.senate.gov/about/bipartisanship/legislation

Since President Trump was inaugurated, no Senator (Democrat or Republican) has split with their party more often than Senator Manchin, including 23 votes in which he was the only Democrat to vote with the Republicans on issues such as:

...

Confirming Trump Nominees – No Democratic Senator has voted to confirm more Trump nominees (115) than Senator Manchin. Senator Manchin voted to confirm his nominee to serve on the Supreme Court, Justice Neil Gorsuch. On nine occasions, Senator Manchin was the only Democrat to vote to confirm Trump nominees, including two cabinet Secretaries, three circuit court judges, and various other nominees.

He voted to confirm Kavanaugh also.

They've been on board for the vast majority of Biden's nominations so far.
